Love & Life

Love & Life:

Living life to the fullest takes a lot of dedication and work. However, it can be extremely difficult to maintain a high level of inspiration, especially when the going gets tough.

Whenever things don’t go as planned, I developed the habit to relax for a couple of minutes, take a step back and have a look at my handpicked selection of the most inspiring quotes about life, love, happiness and growth. Often times, that’s all it takes to re-enlighten the burning fire of inspiration within me. It’s really astonishing what a few very wise words can do to your overall well-being and the way you perceive the world. Sometimes you’re just so caught up with your daily life that it appears to be a grim and ruthless world you’re living in. Inspiration from so many different sources allows us to remember the true beauty of life. It makes us see opportunities where others only see problems.

Reading through the quotes of some

of the wisest men and women helps us to get our positive outlook on life back, even in times of great trouble. Life can be tough, it can be difficult, but with the right source inspiration, you have everything you need to face the challenges of your daily life.If we have the courage to pay close attention to the wisdom that can be found within each quote, if we truly digest it and act upon it, we can profoundly change our lives.

Love is a force of nature. ‘

However much we may want to, we cannot command, demand, or take away love, any more than we can command the moon and the stars and the wind and the rain to come and go according to our whims. We may have some limited ability to change the weather, but we do so at the risk of upsetting an ecological balance we don’t fully understand. Similarly, we can stage a seduction or mount a courtship. But the result is more likely to be infatuation or two illusions dancing together than love.

Love is bigger than you are. You can invite love,

but you cannot dictate how, when, and where love expresses itself. You can choose to surrender to love or not, but in the end, love strikes like lightning: unpredictable and irrefutable. You can even find yourself loving people you don’t like at all. Love does not come with conditions, stipulations, addenda, or codes. Like the sun, love radiates independently of our fears and desires.

Love is inherently free. It cannot be bought, sold, or traded. You cannot make someone love you, nor can you prevent it — not for any amount of money. Love cannot be imprisoned, nor can it be legislated. Love is not a substance, not a commodity, not even a marketable power source. Love has no territory, no borders, no quantifiable mass or energy output.

Marriage is a matter for the law, for rules and courts and property rights. In the past, the marriage price, or dowry, and in the present, alimony and the pre-nuptial agreement, make it clear that marriage is all about contracts. But as we all know, marriages, whether arranged or not, may have little to do with love.
